@BlizzardCS For several months now since the voice chat changes to Overwatch, my voice chat randomly disconnects and crashes mid game with the only way to fix it being to restart my entire game. Naturally, this makes competitive very frustrating. Please resolve

@felloffarainbow I agree, but in Overwatch it’s the entire culture and community of the game and Blizzard that’s the problem. These ******** are in every game, and no matter how many times you report them they get no consequences so they know they can keep doing it or make infinite accounts

overwatch's biggest issue isnt the game itself but the fact that the players need that dumb orange meter that says 'overtime' on the top of the screen to tell themselves "now lets actually try"

@AutumnBombshell i know this is about halo, but this was one of my biggest issues with Overwatch because only 2-3 of their maps are fun

not gonna lie i kinda miss overwatch. it had a load of problems, but i guess what i miss is when you played with friends and didn't take it too seriously it had its moments. i'm garbage at apex and the mechanics of battle royales kinda stress me

@_ThatKin The biggest issue is the matchmaker doesn't block maps you just played, like why?? Other games like overwatch it's literally impossible to get the same map 2 times in a row cause the matchmaker doesn't allow it except in rare situations

i still think the biggest problem in overwatch is that we can't buy player icons with credits

@TerraSirena Like for real, if you feel so strongly about it why are you not all up in threads asking why Overwatch can't pause, or WoW or Cod or literally any other game. It wasn't a problem until fromsoft did it, and that is why the argument bothers me.

« the world was at war with the omnics; Overwatch had fallen, disavowed. Those at the higher up were simply just pulling soldiers away from less important areas, leaving the poor to die. Then they started to run out of soldiers to throw at the problem.They needed faster reflexes»

The only thing that would make me return to Overwatch would be if they made Doomfist omega broken again with all the map "speedrun" movement "glitches" that allowed me to cross the map in half a second and burst the enemy support

@Halo Will there ever be a reconnect feature added to help in instance when I disconnect or have a game crash? We’ve also seen this request pop up quite a bit too. We like the idea, but we’ll need to do additional investigations before we can make any commitments. -overwatch 2016

The fact that my pc on overwatch on low settings can go up to 80c while playing just kinda tells you how *** my pc is. Let alone any other game besides osu ill crash lmao

My favorite type of dps are those that blame their healers because they're ****. "I'd only I had a pocket" "Mercy you suck" "Mercy follow me" Sorry, but if you NEED a pocket to kill anything you're the problem 🙃 #Overwatch

@LunASStra the best part about growing up with the internet is watching the titanic-esque **** that is the overwatch community creating their entire online persona about overwatch only for the game to crash and burn because the devs never cared in the first place.

@wiredphantom the main problem with overwatch is that the best characters are always the least involved ones, Reinhardt literally just needs to hold one button down for 90% of the match, Orisa just needs to press 2 buttons most of the time, mei is literally pyro but more brain dead

@GundamLet Overwatch was awesome, but I don't want to play a live service game from Blizzard till they sort themselves out. Also Gundam is like the best thing ever. Wait why does the headline say Overwatch Knockoff like it's a bad thing? Lmfao

@wismeib @envynade_ @SeoulessOW other games absolutely get this wrong but overwatch despite its issues when it comes to female body type rep does male body type rep really well. i mean look at torb, hog, rein, junk, doom, lucio, sigma, hanzo, etc - they're all completely different shapes and sizes
